addicted to testing (HPT)

Was anyone here addicted to testing (HPT) My boyfriend found a pile of HPT in the garbage and thought i had a problem. Sometimes I would do it twice a day, if I had to go to the toilet without it i felt like I was wasting my pee. Then suddenly when the doctor told me I was pregnant I didnt believe her and felt like I still needed to buy more tests. Did anyone have these similar problems?

Yep!  Sometimes 2x a day......sometimes I go back into the garbage (not the nasty kitchen garbage, mind you) to see if they miraculously changed over a few hours!  DUH...Why not just keep them out for hours???
